During my childhood days, I grew up with the abundance of God's mercy and always well protected in all angles. I never got a chance to feel the pinch of scarcity, abondonment in my entire life. That being the case, I was always in the comfort zone, happy go lucky and I always got what I wanted, you name it and it was there. Richly blessed!!! As time went by, I did get very close to god with weekly fasting, worship and prayer. Never knew what pain was most of the time. I always had my way. But when it came to the point wherein I had to settle down in my life with the good life partner, thats where it hit me hard. First it was delayed with my Master's degree completion, then to find a good Job during the time of recession. The IT market was bad each time I wanted to move to a new place of work, to be precise each time I needed a change. So the years of my life rolled by with my mom's prolonged illness and various other issues taking its toll... so here I am on my knees every morning praying to God for many things in my life to happen and also praying that people don't mistake me as to why I am single still.
Is it something to do with me?? Well!Praying hard and trying my best to put on my best attitude so that I show a positive outlook towards life and that I can be an example to many who go through problems like me.
As Jesus said in John 14:13-14 "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."
As it says in Psalm 29:11 The LORD will give strength to his people; the LORD will bless His people with peace.
I know if nobody walks beside me, my God is always by my side to revive me of my loneliness and renew my strength like an eagle's strength.
Too much of any activity amounts to nothing, there should be a proper balance.
Our God looks deep inside our hearts and is close to the contrite in heart. He doesn't see the clothes that we wear or how beautiful or handsome we look...he just needs a broken heart.
